My last posting was very clear saying that he
hasn't have any information and it is a lie,
but also really *was a joke*. Gerardo believes
it is true :-). My last information came
from a Cuban in Europe (Ernesto Estevez) and
he told me this:
::Hola:
::La informacion es falsa y fue publicada como una tomadura de pelo el dia
::de los inocentes o algo asi. En la noticia completa el portavoz cubano
::se llama algo como Juan FUMARICO lo que te indica que todo es un gran
::chiste.
::La noticia es tonteria pura y no vino de AP sino que fue un chiste de
::alguien el dia de los inocentes o algo asi.
::Quien crea seriamente tonterias de ese tipo no deberia ni estar
::estudiando ciencias sociales. Eso eran de los que se creian que en el
::comunismo se enlataban a los ninos como carne (corned beef) porque lo
::leyo en NeewsWeek.
::Gracias por tu sincera preocupacion y tu desmentis al ingenuo.
::Ernesto Estevez.
I hope everything is clear now.
